Default losi 22 2.0 keeps spinning out

I built it by the book. It has a trininity 17.5 with a 30 pinion. I have the dirt webs, no matter what I do the thing spins out in the turns with barely any throttle. Any ideas???

Everyone else isn't having problems, if I barely blip the throttle it'll do donuts for days.

You know I had the same problem yesterday (I normally never have that problem) on a medium to medium low traction track yesterday. Everything is free, so I'm guessing it is the diff. I was thinking of tightening or just rebuilding it. Maybe someone with better suggestions will post something.

Not a lot of info to figure out, But do the front tires hit something when you turn full lock? Front Tires spin freely ? Compress your shocks, would anything bind? Just some ideas , Hope it helps.

I do have the same problems. But getting a little bit better. I did loosen up the ball diff. Use lighter rear shock oil. I made the rear turn buckles (inside higher than outside). Slow down the steering speed and lessen the steering epa. And keep the front and back tires as clean as possible. And still learning

Slipper too tight, stiffer springs up front, ball diff not set up correctly, more weight at rear, incorrect tires, lots of things to go thru....but if no one else at your track is having this issue, can you not ask one of them?

If you have the proper tires and good diffs an easy/free way test some things is with camber links. If I were u I would start by making the front link longer by one hole and the rear shorter by one hole. If that helps u know you are heading in the right direction. Shocks are for bumps and jumps, camber links are used to tune turning chararictisc. If you really want to know how to tune a car read through the thread "tuning with camber links" and look at .fredswains. posts that guy is the man! Helped me out a lot.

Even on the right compound, some tracks require broken in tires, drive it around in the parking lot for 10 minutes.
